I suggest you discover the trenches of the First World War, and break some clichés about them! This is what the Museum of the Great War in Meaux does, so don't hesitate to visit it: https://bit.ly/museedelagrandeguerre_NB When we think of the First World War, the first landscape that comes to mind is the trench. And in fact, on the Western Front, the trench was the daily life of the soldiers for more than three years out of four. Its importance is such that the historian François Cochet even speaks of a real "trench system", organized, self-maintained and in perpetual evolution: in short, there is not a single "typical trench", but rather multitudes of forms, living and changing. And that is what I suggest you discover today! ???? Writing: Benjamin Brillaud, Jean de Boisséson, Simon Vacheron / L'Atelier d'Histoire ➤ L'Atelier d'Histoire: / @latelierdhistoire ????
